Pursuant to Circular Letter No. 360, no later than September 16, 2024, all employers must use and post the revised notice poster. The notice must be posted in a visible location utilized and accessible to all employees. If no such location exists, the notice must be distributed to employees electronically or by regular mail.

In addition, employers must fill out the blank boxes in the notice to identify the employer HR/workers compensation contact name and phone number; the workers’ compensation insurance carrier name, address and phone number; and the name of the medical facility that is the insurer’s preferred provider, if any, and the medical facility’s address and phone number.

The poster must be updated, reposted, and redistributed whenever any of the information changes.
